Title: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: Mrs Warbouys on October 06, 2017, 11:37:01 AM
Alty 2/5
Draw 7/2
Rushall 9/2

They'll want a reaction and to tighten up after getting murdered on Tuesday, might be a frustrating afternoon, but we should be more than capable of three points.

I'd be surprised if NLD only put another 100(ish) on the crowd!

On the basis I was expecting a four-figure crowd, then it will probably end in a dour 0-0. Because that's the very 'Alty' thing to do. 

If I've wildly over-estimated the crowd then we should cruise to victory as you say.

Big crowd (I think 1200ish), limited opposition who shipped 7 on Tuesday-its perfectly set up for a 0-0 then. Only joking I reckon we’ll win 2/3-0.

1145 crowd to watch Alty dominate "The Pics" and continue the run of good form.

If Alty convert their chances tomorrow I'm looking at a big win

6-0 win and hopefully a few more first time folks start coming to Moss Lane on a regular basis

Can't wait......

C'mon Alty

I expect us to win.

I will be surprised if there are more than 1000. You can knock one off because I won't be there. Attending a Jazz Festival at Nicky Clee's cricket club!

Another fantastic result well done to all the lads

I loved it today but love that we still press at 3 nil up and that we close the oppposition down

We stood off so much last season

One love

I thought we were poor in patches but another 3 points. They were absolutely terrible and how he is a keeper is beyond me. Is Short still carrying a knock? I love Dens but his legs are going a wee bit.
Glad Miller gained some match time but he is another 6 or 7 games off starting. The bench today was very strong. JJ, Hannigan and Harrison all very very good again.

Good result today. Some of our passing was a bit iffy at times which in turn affects our
 forward movement.
Overall a good 3 points..
I thought the crowd was bigger than the 984 stated..

I was very impressed by the fans singing especially in the second half.
Well done lads, and lassies

Officials good for once

Conditions not great for a passing side like us

Back four looked very comfortable

Nice to chat for two minutes to Gary Scott Scott Scott after the gamr

Only one maybe, it would be Short for Densmore but I would still go Densmore and Short as full backs until Disney comes back.

Stourbridge v Halesowen is a proper local derby which gets a very good crowd whenever it's played at a convenient time, so I always expected that to be the best crowd of the day.

A very good result today, even if, as a few people have said, we didn't play particularly well, not that we were troubled at any stage.

News just coming through, by the way, that Rushall have parted company with Wayne Thomas after another heavy defeat.

Athlete - yes, strength - yes, speed when he beaks a sweat - yes. Defensive positioning - no, passing - average, fouling - yes, man marking - no. I can't make my mind up completely and he will get away with his bad attributes in this league but he would mess up often in the league above!

Its always sad when a team parts company with a manager but its life in football at every level. Its definitely a results game !!! I overheard some discontented talk just after the game from some Rushall officials so the parting of the ways came as no surprise. In truth they were never in it. The second half was a canter IMO.  Good to see Ben Harrison get MOM.

I get what you're saying to a degree. I think he has bags of skill and is obviously very good athletically but he never seems to move above a trot. To be fair to him he practically never lost the ball yesterday and he made all the tackles required of him. Maybe he'd look a bit more urgent if he was actually under any sort of pressure.

I agree with that.  Tempting fate here but he has been part of a defence that concedes very few (Workington aside) and is on good form. I would also say being athletic, fast and strong at this level is no bad thing. If he's not good enough for a higher level then lets worry about that if and when we are there.

By no means our top player but he is no weak link either and he deserves his place right now.
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: Alty Bri on October 08, 2017, 12:58:24 PM
Like all our players, I hope it works out well for him. Will be interesting to see how he performs as a defender when we play against opposition with a half decent winger. For the time being, everything is fine.
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: Paul Cain's Chip Pan on October 08, 2017, 12:58:49 PM
If Bembo Leta helps us get promoted, that's when I'll worry about his ability to play at a higher level. One problem at a time....
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: Steve from Sale on October 08, 2017, 01:33:31 PM
I think Bembo-Lita has a great deal more to give this club than he has done already, early days yet but there is more to come from this player; and I don't think it will be long before he scores his first goal.

He is one of the many players I am enjoying watching, my only minor worry is if we get counter attacked by a team, as he is a fully committed attacking defender and I worry he could leave us short. Other than that, I really cannot criticise him. we will see what happens when we play the likes of Warrington/Lancaster etc.
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: cheshire cat on October 08, 2017, 06:50:05 PM
I can understand where people are coming from. He appears to play in such a chilled out way. He's very confident on the ball. Far more confident than I am when he is in possession. I keep expecting someone to strip him of the ball but it doesn't happen.
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: adzid on October 08, 2017, 11:04:22 PM
Think Bembo bas been one of our better players in the last few games I've seen him play. He creates countless good attacking situations and defensively hard to criticise a defence that keeps so mamy clean sheets. I get the fact his relaxed style of play makes people nervous but for a defender he actually has a good deal of technical ability.
Title: Re: Rushall - Match thread
Post by: MarpleAlty on October 09, 2017, 08:57:03 AM
I was gutted Bembo-Leta's goal was chalked off on Saturday, I thought he deserved it for how much he pushed up and supported.

If our fans felt we didn't play well in parts, then we're definitely getting spoilt a bit this season because that was leap years ahead of most things I've seen over the past couple of years (granted against mediocre opposition).

What I quite like is the willingness to play a short game up to the edge of their box (evidenced by Hancock's lovely team goal), take a few risks, etc.

It's good to know we're unpredictable in the final third for a change, and could just as easy play a ball into Hulme's feet with his back to goal or get it wide to JJ.

All the goals ticked good boxes - (1) corner, bit sweaty (2) good approach play (3) incisive breakaway (4) gambling on the rebound. Very satisfying.
